Landmark Commission makes it official
Tuesday, August 25, 2015 by Elizabeth Pagano
Despite the fact that there were still only seven of the 11 members present, the Historic Landmark Commission elected its officers Monday night. “The clerk’s office has told us we pretty much have to do it,” said Historic Preservation Officer Steve Sadowsky. With that in the rearview, commissioners voted unanimously to make official the temporary officers from their first meeting. Mary Jo Galindo will remain chair, and David Whitworth will serve as vice chair. The District 2 commission seat remains vacant.
